Monitoring of wind-induced vibrations on a 215 meter tall residential building
conference paper
Comparison between in-situ measurements and design values of high rise dynamic characteristics shows that current way of predicting these values is inaccurate. The HiViBe project aims to develop models which provide for more reliable predictions of the dynamic characteristics and response of high-rise buildings. To that end, measurements are performed on several high-rise buildings in the Netherlands. One of these buildings is the Zalmhaven I, with 215 m currently the tallest residential tower in the Netherlands. A monitoring system was installed just before completion of the tower, with acceleration, inclination and strain sensors on different floors, and an anemometer on the mast at 210 m height. The measured natural frequencies and damping ratios are respectively significantly higher and lower than the values applied in the design of the building.
